which dogs are suitable for joggin with

I have a nearly 2 yr old westie and I have just started running (only short distance for now) and I take my westie with me to burn off some energy but he really drags behing me.. hes a younge happy fit dog. are they suitable for running with? can it make him have bone problems later in life?

Answer #1

as long as you have water and its less then a mile jog

Answer #2

well I don’t know if I can help because I have 2 great danes and I ran with one of them once and it was like running behind a horse! a very fast galloping horse. so if your really looking to get a workout, haha, get a great dane!
